History

The use dates back to the Ancient Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans. The Egyptians used thyme for embalming; the thyme helped kill bacteria and fungus, which made it a useful embalming agent. The Greeks used it in their baths and burnt it as incense in their temples, believing it was a source of courage. The Romans used it to purify their rooms and to give an aromatic flavour to cheese and liqueurs. Throughout the Middle Ages, the herb was placed beneath pillows to aid sleep and ward off nightmares.
